The face is human not animal, however, and it's heavily bearded. Nonetheless, the figure of an animal is carved on the side of its head and this animal resembles no known species more closely than it does Toxodon, a sort of New World rhino that went extinct during the cataclysms at the end of the Ice Age around 12,000 years ago.

So there's only one question – and it's difficult to answer: is this a depiction of Toxodon, or is it some creature of the artist's imagination?”
